The North Somerset Business Show 2012 is only a few months away and a number of companies have already signed up to exhibit, prompting organisers to say they are confident of hitting the hundred mark this time around.

This year’s show will be held at the Winter Gardens on Wednesday May 23, from 2pm until 7pm, and a spokesperson for the event said recently that it was was shaping up to be biggest yet:“The event hosted 55 exhibitors in 2011 but, given the amount of interest already shown, we hope to double that number in 2012.”

In 2011 it was was held at Puxton Park and alongside the many businesses exhibiting their products and services it attracted signigicant footfall. The show’s impact resulted in it being highlighted by high profile local figures such as John Penrose MP - NSBS.

One business owner who has signed up to exhibit again is Jon Hebbes of Poppy Communications:“We were at the North Somerset business show last year and attracted a number of new clients off the back of that event. It was a huge benefit to our company and we are expecting the same results in 2012.”

Jon continues: “As soon as we knew the date and location of this year’s event we signed up immediately. It’s a no brainer for us, with so many companies looking like being there on the day, of all shapes and sizes, it will be a great way to maket ourselves and drum up new business.”
